FROM ne OhlchgO Herald.
Mr. Elaine debating from Paris the repub-
lican policy AS to su plus taxation, urges its
spending ON coast dcfcnscs 1t is hard to
see how Western people could get any ad
vantage Of such spending. How could the
money they would pay out always in the over
tai find its way back TO them after its dis
bursement at the scaports: Those who would
be employed on them are at work now, pre-
suuably, and to q better advantage, for now
annual prom. results from their labor, while
there is precisely the same gain made by forti-
flying as hy pyramid building. Changing oc-
cupation, they would consume only what they
now do. No noticeable change would occur
ia the market for food or clothing. How,
then, could our over-taX come back to us
mat the surplus they now produce would be
lost is plain that this loss would be felt in
the diminution # our domestic trade inter
changes is plain, too that the forts would b,
doomed to usrlcssness 10y the rapid world adj
vance in be machinery of war is plain again,
and these are the ouly results it is safe to
predict if this coast defense is entered upon

Saint-Cyr watched il curiously. The
plant apparently dead, slowly revived,

upon the saucer a lovely flower-a green
